Hey, that was super fun!
I don’t know what the rest of the season will bring —and the fundamental issues facing this team remain the same today as they were Friday morning— but I’m sure the Spurs will continue to be a work in progress and we will likely still have to sit through a few more frustrating losses than we’re used to.
But man, that was fun.
Heading into the 4th quarter, the Lakers had stiff-armed every attempt the Spurs had made at getting back into the game. Every time the good guys would get it back to within striking distance, LeBron would come up with a stop and race down the court for a quick two and then Lonzo would find Josh Hart open in transition for an easy lay up and, before you knew it, the Lakers were back up by 10.
